The Basics
WARNING! To avoid damage to your phone's port and cable plug, orient the plug with the port
before inserting it.
NOTE Do not open the back cover while your phone is charging.
NOTE Only use approved charging accessories to charge your LG phone. Improper handling of
the USB/Charging Port, as well as the use of an incompatible charger, may cause
damage to your phone and void the warranty.
Optimizing Battery Life
Extend your battery's life between charges by turning off features that you
don't need to have running constantly in the background.
Extending your phone's battery life:
 Reduce the screen brightness setting and set a shorter screen timeout.
 Turn off radio communications (such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, etc.) that
you're not actively using.
 Turn off automatic syncing for Gmail, Calendar, Contacts, and other apps.
 Monitor the battery use screen to identify if apps you've downloaded are
consuming a large percentage of your battery power.
NOTE Allowing other devices to use your phone's hotspot connection will also drain your
battery more quickly.
To check the battery power level:
 From the Home screen, tap the Menu key > Settings > About
phone > Battery.
The battery status (charging or discharging) and battery level (percentage
charged) are displayed.
To monitor and control how battery power is being used:
 From the Home screen, tap the Menu key > Settings > About
phone > Battery > Battery use.
A battery usage graph is displayed along with battery usage time,
estimated time remaining, and last 3 hours usage. The screen also lists
the apps or services using battery power, listed in order from the
greatest to the least amount used.
